TYPO3 Core

Actually it takes a lot of time for editors to scroll to the part again, where they edited the last time..

best solution would be an ajax request, but this is I think an epic issue for future release :)

It works if i open the element via pencil. If i open it by clicking on the text, it does not scroll down.

?Ajax-Request?

Best solution would be to add an achor to the preview link for instance:

website.de/?id=123#Anchor1

Then all I had to do is add anchors to all my tt_content elements, which I do anyways..

And I remember it worked some years ago..

It would be really nice if this could be fixed/implemented.
As Michael said it would save the editors a lot of time.

I've seen this work just fine in 6.2. Are you using gridelements by any chance? Because it doesn't work with nested gridelements: https://forge.typo3.org/issues/73093

It doesn't work anymore in TYPO3 7.6 though. I got it fixed by updating TYPO3\CMS\Backend\View\PageLayoutView::tt_content_drawHeader() and changing line 1399 to:
'returnUrl' => GeneralUtility::getIndpEnv('REQUEST_URI') . '#element-tt_content-' . $row['uid']

However I'm not sure if this is a good way to fix it.

as well on hidding and unhidding (line: 1399 for typo3 7.6.16) :

public function tt_content_drawHeader($row, $space = 0, $disableMoveAndNewButtons = false, $langMode = false, $dragDropEnabled = false)
{
[...]
               if ($hiddenField && $GLOBALS['TCA']['tt_content']['columns'][$hiddenField]
                    && (!$GLOBALS['TCA']['tt_content']['columns'][$hiddenField]['exclude']
                        || $this->getBackendUser()->check('non_exclude_fields', 'tt_content:' . $hiddenField))
                ) {
                    if ($row[$hiddenField]) {
                        $value = 0;
                        $label = 'unHide';
                    } else {
                        $value = 1;
                        $label = 'hide';
                    }
                    $params = '&data[tt_content][' . ($row['_ORIG_uid'] ? $row['_ORIG_uid'] : $row['uid'])
                        . '][' . $hiddenField . ']=' . $value;
                    $out .= '<a class="btn btn-default" href="' . htmlspecialchars(BackendUtility::getLinkToDataHandlerAction($params))

/* ADD THIS LINE */ . '#element-tt_content-' . $row['uid']

                        . '" title="' . $this->getLanguageService()->getLL($label, true) . '">'
                        . $this->iconFactory->getIcon('actions-edit-' . strtolower($label), Icon::SIZE_SMALL)->render() . '</a>';
                }
[...]
}
